Hurling (Irish: iománaíocht, iomáint) is an outdoor team game of ancient Gaelic Irish origin. The game has prehistoric origins, and has been played for 4,000 years. One of Ireland's native Gaelic games, it shares a number of features with Gaelic football, such as the field and goals, the number of players, and much terminology. There is a similar game for women called camogie (camógaíocht). It shares a common Gaelic root with the sport of shinty (camanachd), which is played predominantly in Scotland.

Facts about the Irish Language

1.    There is no ‘yes’ or ‘no’ in Irish

There are no words for "yes" or "no" in Irish, but that doesn't mean there's no way to answer a question. You communicate "yes" and "no" with a verb form.

2.    Its word order is Verb Subject Object and not Subjet Object Verb

Sentences have Verb Subject Object order. So "I saw a bird" would be "Saw I a bird." "I always speak Irish" would be "Speak I Irish always." This word order is relatively rare—only 9 percent of the world's languages use it.

3.    The words for numbers depend on whether you're counting humans or non-humans.

The Irish have a set for counting humans and a set for counting non-humans. So, five children are different then but five horses.

4.    1.77 million people speak Irish in Ireland today. The language has spread outside of Ireland, too: 18.000 Americans speak Irisih at home and 9.000 Irish speakers in Great Britain.

Short background
With the Acts of Union in 1800 (ratified in 1801), Ireland (which had been under some form of English control since the 12th century) merged with Great Britain to form the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. As a result, Ireland lost its parliament in Dublin and was governed by a united parliament from Westminster in London. During the 19th century, groups of Irish nationalists opposed this arrangement in varying degrees.

The story
The Easter Rising was a rebellion in Dublin, Ireland at Easter in 1916. It started on April 24, 1916 and ended on April 29, 1916. It was carried out by members of the Irish Republican Brotherhood and members of the Irish Citizens Army. It was done to protest against British rule in Ireland. It was the first uprising in Ireland since the 1798 rebellion.

At first the people in Dublin were confused and angry, because many had died and food supplies were cut off. But after the British shot the leaders, some of the Irish people began to follow and support them in sympathy for their cause. The Easter Rising was a major reason for the creation of the Irish Republic and the Irish War of Independence.

Aftermath

In the 1918 general election to the parliament of the United Kingdom, the Sinn Fein political party (whose goal was to establish a republic) won a majority of the Irish seats. The Sinn Fein members then refused to sit in the UK Parliament, and in January 1919 met in Dublin to convene a single chamber parliament and declare Ireland’s independence. The Irish Republican Army then launched a guerrilla war against the British government and its forces in Ireland. Following a July 1921 cease-fire, the two sides signed a treaty in December that called for the establishment of the Irish Free State, a self-governing nation of the British Commonwealth, the following year. Ireland’s six northern counties opted out of the Free State and remained with the United Kingdom.

3 popular Irish bands are U2, The Script and The cranberries. We just saw that U2 wrote a songs about the bad periods in Ireland. But did you know that the song Zombie from The cranberries is also about a bad period in the history of Ireland. The song Zombie is a protest song about the Troubles in Northern-Ireland. The Troubles was an ethnic and national conflict Northern-Ireland in de 1960. The script also wrote multiple songs with a big story but these stories were more about worldwide problems and not really about problems in Ireland.

Irish (Gaeilge) is a language of the Celtic languages family.
Irish has been the dominant language of the Irish people for
most of their recorded history. It is also the first official language of
Ireland, whereas English is second.

Nowadays there about 73,000 daily speakers in Ireland and
4,000 in Northern Ireland.
When Britain ruled over Ireland in the 16th century, the
Irish language came close to dying out. Irish people were forced to exclusively
speak English.

Most Irish people still feel very strongly about keeping the
language alive. The Foras na Geilge is an organization that is in charge of
promoting the Irish language.
When looking at this map of Ireland, showing the division in
daily Irish speakers, you can see in the north that few people still speak
Irish. This can be traced back to the 16th century, where Scottish-Protestant
immigrants lived.
